As it's illegal for a 20-year-old to buy a handgun. Oh, and a permit is needed in both NJ and CT for a handgun. Both states have assault weapons bans and NJ has magazine restrictions... and he drove through NY, too.

So the gun laws (a crapload of them between the three states) did nothing to stop this.
